Sorry for these very basic question, but after reading all the manual I
don't find how add an address on CC, or modify contacts already
filled in To.

Thanks,

do you mean in the "compose message" view?
There are key bindings defined in `binds.conf` which should look
something like this:

```
[compose]
$ex = <C-x>
<C-k> = :prev-field<Enter>
<C-j> = :next-field<Enter>

[compose::editor]
$noinherit = true
$ex = <C-x>
<C-k> = :prev-field<Enter>
<C-j> = :next-field<Enter>
```

So you should be able to use ctrl+j and crtl+k to cycle through the
fields and edit them directly.

Kind regards,

Jens

Thanks for pointing out these key bindings, I missed them...
Now I'm looking to compose a message with a CC contact, or add a CC
after starting to edit a message, any ideas?

depends on which editor is started. The default is vi(m) I think and you
should be able to jump out of the editor window by using ctrl+j / crtl+k
if not in insert mode.

There is also a configuration directive for which headers to show in the
`[compose]` section in the config:

```
header-layout=To|From,Cc|Bcc,Subject
```

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Jens

If the Cc header isn't showing up by default, you can enter command mode
<C-x>, and then type:

header Cc

This will add a Cc editor.

This is exactly what I was looking for.
